Friend Mel Hager on Facebook! You will be notified of events, see event photos by library volunteers and shared photos by other summer readers.

Parents register, then sign up each child as a participant. Older children and teens may sign up as one who registers, then add self as participant.
Please remember your username and password as that is how you will input your reading times as of June 14, 2015.

With summer break comes summer reading at the Alexander County Library and the Bethlehem Branch. You will want to keep your reading skills sharp over the summer, and practice makes perfect. Let the library help you keep all the great strides you made over the school year.
We can provide great reading material all summer long, therapy dogs to read to, and awesome programs including a Scavenger Hunt with The Hiddenite Center. Did I mention fun, as well?
